Turkish Airlines to launch Flights to Tanzania

Turkish Airlines is to launch scheduled service from Istanbul to Dar es Salaam, the commercial Capital of Tanzania on the Indian Ocean Coast.

The flights to Dar es Salaam are expected to begin June 2010 in time for the peak tourism season in Tanzania.

 Mr. Amant Macha, Tanzania Tourist Board’s acting Managing Director, said, “Tanzania applauds this move by Turkish Airlines and it is a good indicator of the passenger demand for tourism and trade between our two countries. We expect that this new service will boost the number of Turkish visitors by about 25,000. We also anticipate that this will be yet another gateway for the American market, who would be interested in combining these two very popular, but different destinations.”
